Toray MS-1H

Toray MS-1H is a carbon fiber/epoxy resin compression molding system using a high-modulus PAN carbon fiber. This is an excellent high stiffness molding compound that has been qualified to military and commercial Applicationss. It has excellent out time stability and processes very well in small and thin cross-section parts. It is the performance alternative to MS-4H 25.4 mm (1”) molding compound. MS-1H is offered with 25.4 mm (1”) carbon fibers, or for smaller parts, a 12.7 mm (1/2”) fiber version is available. 138°C (280°F) Fast Cure Intermediate-Modulus Compression Molding System
